“Change will come by working together and making it easier to embrace decisions that will sustain our world, rather than carrying on as though there are no limits – or as though our actions have no consequences.”
The King delivers a speech at the Opening Ceremony of the World Climate Action Summit at #COP28.

The Duchess visited The Centre for Research on Tropical Agriculture Seed Bank, to hear about their work to promote food security amidst climate change.
HRH also saw advanced DNA sequencing technology being developed to help combat the illegal wildlife trade.
